The Neighborhood:
Ruardean Hill, the highest point in the Forest of Dean, offers stunning panoramic views and serves as a gateway to a wealth of outdoor adventures and local attractions. Nature lovers can explore nearby walking trails, including those leading into the Forest of Dean itself, where ancient woodlands, wildlife spotting, and peaceful picnic spots abound. The Gloucestershire Way trail also passes close by, perfect for hikers seeking breathtaking scenery.
A short drive away, Symonds Yat Rock offers spectacular views of the River Wye and is a hotspot for birdwatching, particularly peregrine falcons. It's also a popular spot for rock climbers. Canoeing or paddleboarding on the River Wye is a fantastic way to enjoy the area’s natural beauty. Several tour operators run a fantastic service where you can paddle down the river, enjoying pubs along the way, before being picked up and dropped back at your vehicle! For history enthusiasts, explore Goodrich Castle, a well-preserved medieval fortress with incredible views.
Families will love Puzzlewood, a magical woodland used as a film location, or the Dean Forest Railway for nostalgic steam train rides. Ruardean Hill provides the perfect base for exploring this beautiful and historic region.
